mdx-bundler VS Hexo

Personally using https://github.com/kentcdodds/mdx-bundler

Exact code could be different if you're using mdx-bundler, Contentlayer, or anything else. But there should be a similar API for adding components.

mdx-bundler

Do note that Code Hike also works with Next MDX Remote and MDX Bundler however, we are going to look at a simple example with the official MDX plugin for Next.js.

i'm having a hard time finding a solution, just like others → https://github.com/kentcdodds/mdx-bundler/issues/70

Depends on what functionality you'd like to add as you go. I recently built my site from scratch (with no prior experience) using NextJS, MDX and mdx-bundler [1]. Having the ability to add custom components, or statically generate a related posts matrix are all super useful.

MDX Bundler differs from all of the other packages listed above in that it is Framework agnostic, meaning you can use it outside of Next.js. Like next-mdx-remote, no changes to the next.config.js file are necessary.

To make Next.js works with MDX, we need to compile and bundle the markdown files. For this task, I decided to go with the new mdx-bundler library made by the famous Kent C. Dodds.

A lot of great suggestions here and some stuff I’ve never heard of before!

Throwing my own suggestion into the ring, as I was just looking into this last week.

I started setting up a blog using Hexo. It’s another Node based SSG that uses markdown and supports tags. It has a lot of neat plugins that people have developed, too.

I like it so far!

In my case, the latter is not possible because this blog is a static site, generated via Hexo and hosted on GitHub. It simply lacks a modifiable active server component.

Hexo — best lightweight SSG

Previously I've used Nuxt2 and even sooner - hexo.io

To make their creation easier, numerous open-source static websites generators are available: Jekyll, Hugo, Gatsby, Hexo, etc. Most of the time, the content is managed through static (ideally Markdown) files or a Content API. Then, the generator requests the content, injects it in templates defined by the developer and generates a bunch of HTML files.

Hexo's

I'm currently using Hexo, I write articles in markdown, commit them to a git repository and push them to Github. I then have a Github Action to bundle the static website and publish it on Github Pages, so I get free hosting 👌

There are also many alternatives for selecting Static-Side Generating blog framework such as Hexo, Gatsby, Next.js (more details here). We will pick Hexo as our framework because it is a fast, simple & powerful blog framework.

Some alternatives I'm considering learning instead of Gatsby are Jeckyll or Hexo.
